User manual

Foreword
The induction heating devices HEATER25, HEATER50, HEATER100,
HEATER200, HEATER400, HEATER800 and HEATER1600 give rapid,
clean operation. Their high efficiency level allows energy-efficient
heating and shorter mounting times. This reduces the operating
costs. The uniform, controlled heating allows consistently good
quality of mounting.
Operation is simple and user-friendly, the touch-sensitive screen is
oil-resistant, dustproof and waterproof.
When heating by induction is used, there is no need at all to use
oil – this gives particularly good environmental compatibility.
The scope of application is very extensive. It is possible to heat
the loose inner rings of cylindrical or needle roller bearings as well as
sealed and greased bearings. Compared with previous models,
further improvements have been made in performance capacity and
safety and the part to be heated need no longer be of a minimum
mass.
In order to ensure durability in demanding industrial operation,
the devices are extremely robust and reliable.
Current version An induction heating unit is controlled by means of an operator
unit with a touch-sensitive screen. The operator software can be
developed further and an update is possible free of charge.
Changes to the software can lead to adjustments in the user manual.
A current version of this user manual can be found at

Induction heating devices HEATER
Metallic objects Persons with a metallic object must clarify whether it is ferro-
magnetic before working with an induction heating device.
The following list is not exhaustive but is intended to give
the user an initial overview of the types of metallic objects that
may be hazardous:
■ prosthetic
■ spectacles
■ hearing aid
■ earring
■ piercing
■ brace
■ chain
■ ring
■ armband
■ keys
■ timepiece
■ coin
■ ballpoint pen, fountain pen
■ belt
■ shoes with metal caps or metal springs in the sole.
Safety devices In order to protect the user and the heating device, the following
safety devices are present:
■ The temperatures of the cooling element, coil and housing are
continuously monitored. The thermal protection system will
switch off the heating device before any component is over-
heated. Once the thermal protection system has been triggered,
the heating device can be put back into operation once the error
has been eliminated and the device has been checked.
■ The heating of the rolling bearing is continuously monitored.
If the specified increase in temperature is not achieved within a
certain period, the heating device is switched off by the software.

Schaeffler Technologies BA42 9
Operation In order that the user can move out of the hazard area before
the electromagnetic field is generated, the following operating
options are available:
■ The operator can set the time on the heating device that
is counted down after pressing the START/STOP key before
the electromagnetic field is generated. The user can then move
out of the hazard area within the countdown time.
WARNING
Risk of damage to health from remaining in a strong electromagnetic
field, since the device starts the heating operation unexpectedly.
Set a sufficiently long countdown time in order to allow exit from
the hazard area. 
Activity display During the heating operation, an animation with a red rectangle is
visible. The user can thus recognise during heating when the electro-
magnetic field is being generated. During demagnetisation,
the electromagnetic field is indicated by a red circle with a white
exclamation mark.
Protective equipment Personal protective equipment is intended to protect operating
personnel against health hazards. This comprises safety shoes and
gloves that are heat-resistant up to +250 °C and these must be used
in the interests of personal safety.
